In the next few years, (say five?), today's 20 million will be more than 40 million...by a long way.

This is true...and when the tv deals cease eventually then clubs will find themselves with huge wage bills which their revenues won't get near, owners bailing out taking their shedload of cash with them and eventually clubs folding

Won't concern us though...we're wadded ;)
 
EVERTON KNOW CITY WANT STONES

Everton have been made aware that Man City are interested in signing defender John Stones this summer, Sky sources understand.

The Toffees board does not want to sell the England centre-back, and SSN HQ understands it will take a bid of at least £50m to lure him away.

Stones is due to report for pre-season training on Monday.





Oh yeh if it wasn't for Sky Sports Everton would never know City want to buy him...
 
not every player they will buy will turn out to be a roaring success though, just like any transfer. Sterling was the best young english player available to buy, so they made sure they got him. If he doesn't kick on then so be it, but there is the chance he does and becomes a much better player. as i said it isn't the player now, it is the potential, and at 20 and 21 they have plenty of time to reach it, whereas signing at 25 puts them on a ticking clock to get good or be dropped. Sterling can be dropped for experience (what stones should have had here) but at his age again he has loads to learn and a whole career ahead of him to do it.
<nods respectfully in your direction, ensuring eye contact is made>
 
The season before last he looked 1 of the best prospects id ever seen. Then last season it went horribly wrong. I've no doubt he'll come good again but a player who has asked to leave twice and can command 50 million must be sold. Good luck to the lad
